Don't know how long the law has been on the books, but a friend in the emergency medical field claimed about 15 years ago the New Orleans area had a problem with wannabe vampires / witches and a number of people got hurt bad enough to need hospitalization.

Why has no one written a story about what happened when these wanabee vampires and witches found themselves trapped together in the Superdome after Katrina? Remember the helicopters and national guard and Coast Guard? Remember Browny? Heck, even Bush seemed to be kind of changed by the experience.

The world needs to know it was all due to an apocalyptic threat of wannabe vampires and witches, and only the destruction of the dykes and flooding of the city prevented them from breaking containment and taking over the world.

It explains that the current administration is a result of the failure of that containment.

And here I've just been putting it into my tea in the morning. How embarrassing!
